Overview
The ARRMA Slipper Hub And Plate Set Z-ARA311099 is an essential replacement drivetrain component for RC enthusiasts across the UK who demand reliability and precision engineering in their RC models. Whether you're a seasoned competitor running ARRMA vehicles on the track, a weekend basher enjoying high-speed RC action, or someone restoring an ARRMA RC car to like-new condition, this slipper hub and plate set delivers the performance you need. The slipper clutch system is a critical component in any serious RC vehicle, allowing your motor to maintain optimal power delivery whilst protecting your drivetrain from damage during intense driving conditions and sudden impacts.
This precision-engineered slipper assembly is manufactured by ARRMA using specially selected materials that ensure maximum performance across all conditions, from smooth tarmac to rough outdoor terrain. The slipper clutch mechanism works by allowing controlled slippage between the motor and the wheels when torque exceeds a preset threshold, which prevents catastrophic gear damage and extends the lifespan of your expensive RC drivetrain components. If you've noticed worn slipper plates, inconsistent acceleration, or excessive drivetrain wear on your ARRMA RC model, this genuine replacement set is exactly what you need to restore your vehicle to factory performance standards.
RC Model Shop stocks this essential ARRMA spare part because we recognise that maintaining your RC hobby requires access to genuine, high-quality replacement components. This slipper hub and plate set is compatible with a comprehensive range of ARRMA 1/10 scale vehicles, including the popular FURY 223S BLX brushless short course truck, the FURY 2WD models, the GORGON MT monster truck range, and the VORTEKS 2WD buggy, making it an invaluable addition to any RC enthusiast's spares box.
Key Features
- Precision Manufactured Parts — Every component in this slipper hub and plate set is manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring smooth and consistent operation through thousands of RC driving cycles without binding, grinding, or performance degradation that would compromise your vehicle's handling and acceleration characteristics.
- Specially Selected Materials — ARRMA has engineered this slipper assembly using premium materials selected specifically for durability and performance, providing excellent longevity even under the demanding conditions of competitive RC racing or aggressive weekend bashing when driven hard.
- Complete Replacement Set — This package includes everything needed for a full slipper clutch replacement: one slipper hub, one slipper plate, and one slipper nut, meaning you have all the components required to perform a complete drivetrain restoration without sourcing parts from multiple suppliers.
- Compatible with Multiple ARRMA Models — The versatility of this slipper set makes it an excellent investment for RC enthusiasts who own multiple ARRMA vehicles, as it fits across the FURY 223S BLX, FURY 2WD, GORGON MT, and VORTEKS 2WD model ranges, reducing the need to stock different spare parts for each vehicle.
- Protective Drivetrain Function — The slipper clutch mechanism incorporated into this set protects your expensive gearbox, motor, and transmission components by allowing controlled slip when torque demand exceeds safe limits, preventing the catastrophic failures that occur when lock-up happens during high-impact driving situations.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Slipper Hub And Plate Set Z-ARA311099 represents the culmination of ARRMA's engineering expertise in drivetrain component design. This assembly functions as a critical protection mechanism within your RC vehicle's powertrain, preventing gear stripping and motor damage through its intelligent slippage design. The slipper clutch allows your motor to maintain power delivery to the wheels whilst protecting the gearbox from sudden shock loads that occur during hard acceleration, wheel lockup, or impact events. The precision manufacturing process ensures that the hub seats perfectly within your existing transmission, creating a smooth engagement that eliminates the grinding and jerky acceleration that develops when slipper components wear out. The specially selected materials provide excellent wear resistance across extended driving sessions, whether you're running your ARRMA RC short course truck, monster truck, or buggy on concrete, asphalt, grass, or dirt surfaces. The slipper nut component is engineered with the correct thread pitch and locking characteristics to ensure your slipper assembly remains secure during aggressive driving, preventing loosening that would compromise the entire drivetrain function. This is a genuine ARRMA component manufactured to OEM specifications, ensuring complete compatibility with your vehicle's existing transmission architecture and guaranteeing the smooth, reliable operation that ARRMA vehicles are renowned for across the RC community in the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a slipper clutch and why does my RC car need one? — A slipper clutch is a protective mechanism in your RC vehicle's drivetrain that allows controlled slippage between the motor and wheels when torque exceeds a safe threshold. This prevents catastrophic gear damage, motor burnout, and transmission failure when you experience sudden impacts, hard acceleration, or wheel lockup situations that are common in RC driving. Without a functioning slipper clutch, a single hard crash could destroy your entire drivetrain, making this component essential for protecting your investment.
- How do I know if my slipper clutch needs replacing? — Signs that your slipper hub and plate set needs replacement include inconsistent acceleration response, grinding or chattering noises from the drivetrain, visible wear or damage to the slipper plate, excessive heat generation in the motor area, or if your RC vehicle's performance has degraded significantly despite the motor and ESC functioning correctly. If you've been running your ARRMA vehicle hard for extended periods, regular slipper maintenance is recommended to maintain optimal performance.
- Which ARRMA models is this slipper set compatible with? — The ARRMA Slipper Hub And Plate Set Z-ARA311099 is compatible with the FURY 223S BLX brushless short course truck (both Blue and Green variants), the FURY 2WD models (Blue, Green, and Red variants, with or without battery and charger), the GORGON MT monster truck range (all variants including RTR and RTA kits with various motor specifications and colours), and the VORTEKS 2WD buggy (Orange and Purple variants with or without battery and charger). If you own any of these ARRMA 1/10 scale models, this replacement set will restore your vehicle to factory condition.
- Is this difficult to install myself? — Whilst slipper clutch installation requires access to your vehicle's transmission and some mechanical knowledge, experienced RC enthusiasts who regularly maintain their own vehicles should find this a straightforward replacement task. You'll need basic RC tools including hex drivers and possibly a transmission stand. If you're uncomfortable with drivetrain work, RC Model Shop staff can advise you on professional installation options.
- How often should I replace my slipper clutch components? — The lifespan of slipper components depends on your driving style and usage. Aggressive racing or bashing will wear slipper plates faster than casual recreational driving. Inspect your slipper clutch regularly, and replace the set when you notice visible wear, increased slippage, or degraded performance. Many serious RC racers replace slipper components every racing season or every 10-15 hours of use.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, the Z-ARA311099 is a genuine ARRMA OEM component manufactured to exact factory specifications. Purchasing genuine parts ensures perfect fitment, reliable performance, and longevity. RC Model Shop stocks only authorised ARRMA parts, guaranteeing authenticity and full compatibility with your ARRMA vehicle.
